Just going back to my comment earlier about the Samsung wireless trio charger that I have started to use a few days ago.
(website picture)
As an indication, this evening I put my S21 ultra handset and watch 3, on the charger about 1hr45 ago (at 8:20pm). In that time until 10:05pm the phone has increased from 37% battery to 70% and the watch from 21% to 95%.
Therefore in 105mins it has charged the phone by only 1/3rd. If I had connected the phone via cable from a 25W wall socket then it would have taken around 60mins to charge from 37% to full.
The watch has taken the same 1hr45 to charge an extra 74% so just over 2/3rd.
Hopefully this illustrates that where the wireless can be convenient, it is a slow charge method in comparison. It doesn't matter much if you are planning to leave it overnight on charge, because it will probably take 5 hours to charge the phone, watch and buds at the same time, and all will be fully charged when you awake.
If I was in need of a quick boost to my phone only, I would definitely plug it into for wall for 30 mins rather than put it on a wireless charger.
Where this particular wireless charger comes into usefulness, is when all three need a charge simultaneously at night.
Individually to carry out the plugged in charge cycle for each device would take 1hr30 (phone) + 2hr (watch) + 2hr (buds) and therefore perhaps up to 5hr30 for the total time. This time is similar to the wireless pad time with all three. However the buds only need to be charged once every 4 or 5 days, and the watch every 2 to 3.

@smiley There are obviously pros and cons to wireless charging but personally I find it relatively slow though may be convenient for some. Obviously can make sense if charging overnight , though personally tend to avoid that or if you wish to charge multiple devices simultaneously. Occasionally though may have a partial wireless charge.
According to this article whilst wireless charging could be quicker would be safety concerns with current hardware, wireless charging produces more heat. https://www.reviewgeek.com/35657/why-are-wireless-chargers-so-slow/

@Benny1980 A bit of noise to be expected and not really a concern. However clicking/pulsing may be more of an issue.
